🤖 Humanoid robots were taught to hug - and not fall when contacting each other. Scientists presented the Rhythm system, which allows two robots to coordinate movements and maintain balance during physical interaction. In the demonstration, the humanoids greeted and hugged each other, and were then able to dance and walk side by side while still maintaining contact. The main task of the technology is to teach robots to take into account not only their own movements, but also the actions of another robot, adapting to them in real time. [Source]()
